Superb mechanically built light carbine. Tight tolerances. Would have given it 5 stars if DD wouldn't have added the base model magpul buttstock. You would think for a $1500 DI system DD would have finished the rifle with a quality buttstock. There is a whole lot of play. Enough play in the buttstock that it rattles and moves around when placed in the shoulder pocket. Not a big deal the buttstock can be replaced, but for the money and well DD built carbine I expected the cherry on top. 5 stars for the carbine (mechanical), 4 stars for the overall weapon fit and finish.

I my opinion, short of getting a DD MK18 SBR. This is about as top the line as you can get. I don't know why more people aren't snatching these up. They are a limited run. It's not on the DD civilian website, click under Government and you'll find it there, only difference is the Gov't version is sanitized with no laser etching. The rifle is incredibly light considering it has a gov't profile barrel. The RISII rail is gorgeous on this rifle too!
